Apache CouchDB 2.3.1 | Cross-Site Request Forgery / Cross-Site Scripting
A CouchDB server hosts named databases, which store documents. Each document is uniquely named in the database, and CouchDB provides a RESTful HTTP API for reading and updating (add, edit, delete) database documents.
Mitigation:
Implementing a strong access control mechanism, disabling the HTTP PUT method, and using advanced web application firewall can provide a partial mitigation for this vulnerability.
